According to Osamu Tezuka’s manga, Astro Boy was born in Takadanobaba, in April 2003. So, since 2003, the Japan Rail Station Takadanobaba uses the Astro Boy theme as a train departure signal, and beautiful mural paintings with the works of Osamu Tezuka were displayed at the entrance of the station:

Hoje ao acordar e ao fazer as minhas orações, agradeci a DEUS por ter-me proporcionado a graça de conseguir grandes amigos.

Muito obrigado pela sua amizade.

Beijos no coração e feliz dia dos amigos.
